Unclog a drain

This is my husbands favorite. The first time I did this he was amazed. "Where did you learn how to do this?' I really don't remember. Here's the tip. This works if you have a clogged drain or a drain that is running slow. Boil water, I usually do one or two tea kettles full. While that is boiling I pour white vinegar into the drain. About a cup and a half. I follow up right away with a couple good shakes of baking soda. It will get bubbly. Let it sit for a while. Then when it starts to go down pour the boiling water down the drain. Sometimes I pour another kettle of boiling water. If the drain is still clogged do it again. If this doesn't work then it is time to call a professional. Often times it will work. Do not mix any other chemicals because I am sure that could cause a reaction that could be dangerous. It is worth a try.

The Rich get Richer

I recently started clipping and using coupons. I'm not sure how I got started. I think maybe while I was looking for Catholic sites. I noticed that often one site leads me to another and then another....I can spend hours just searching. When I was tested in High School for what type of career best suited me, I was told I should go into research. I believe it. I have researched just about anything that interests me. I am self taught and can say I have a little knowledge about allot of different things. So the Internet was a dream come true!
Anyway, back to coupons. I recently read that the average income of the person who uses coupons is about $90,000.00. I read it twice. That's crazy! People who really need extra money don't and won't take the time to clip coupons.
I am a very frugal person. I don't like paying people to do things that I can do myself. Therefore, I have taught myself to do allot of things. I shop at thrift shops and have been known to take something off of someones front lawn the night before garage day. I color my own hair, do my own nails, toenails and get haircuts at Best Cuts.
I will be starting something new on this blog. I will blog on deals and some how to do somethings that I have learned along the way.
Stay tuned for more.
